I've been looking at the NY stump shoot thread and I think it's time we put one together down here in Eastern NC.  I propose a stump shoot on April 17th at 9:00 a.m. on the Croatan National Forest.  That is next Sunday.  The spring bloom is on and the fields are green!  It is really a beautiful way to spend a morning, roving about killing vines, stumps, fire ant mounds etc. It will be weather permitting and I'll grill some some deer brats and burgers after.  Confirm on the site or PM for more details.  I know it's short notice but what the heck!

I can't say that I'll make it but let me know the location. My wife is at a horse show this weekend. Gas prices might do me in....  :(

Ruddy, Good to hear from you.  It is alot of fun.  The kids and I enjoy going down there and if you are lucky we may find sheds in the fields.  I found a very nice matching ten point rack in one field last year.  Can you make sure Bernie knows about this and Don?  Thanks, Joe

You know where that is, Ruddy? I should know, being between Pollocksville and New Bern, and I've heard of Brice's Creek but can't seem to place it in my mind - (at least not today - LOL). Anyway I'm aware of it (Joe sent me a PM), and would love to go if it all works out (and my wrist gets better). If it does, perhaps I could pick you up on the way, buddy. Certainly a nice idea in any case. You're all right, Joe, I don't care what the Provost Marshal says about you.

I wondered if it maybe was there and started to ask you but then thought, "Naw, that would be too easy and coincidental." - LOL

Bud, On your map it is the last right shown, coming from Pollocksville on Island Creek Rd.  You will see what we call the "brick store" or Merchant's Grocery.  Take a right go about a mile, turn left on gravel rd to depot. There is a small sign at the gravel rd. If blacktop turns to gravel you went about 400 yds too far.

Joe, I kinda doubt I can make it (lot of stuff to do before I leave for NE.) I will probably be around the house that day. If you want, swing by and get my ariel target thrower and disks and I got a couple dozen flu flu's you guys are more than welcome to use . I will warn you though, It can be very addicting. Don
